This whole fiasco smells fishy to me. Like doping in sports, the cheaters are always a step ahead of the testers. I wonder if bad actors are hijacking others' accounts somehow...
Man I swear I thought about that. Because the time stamps on my game logs make 0 sense. I was either A. Asleep or B. Out of town.

That thought came to my mind as well tbh. Question for anyone that got banned, do any of you have 2FA turned on? Because its monumentally more likely for someone to get hacked if its off

I agree but not having 2FA on these days is silly. Is just an annoying text message

I am just going to play with the handle and not buy stubs. It is a loss at this point per the show zone.

That link was to a CPU game. Why would that make a difference. I quit out of those all the time.
The team listed as CPU is The Eagles and that is SLAMMEDONTARMCS team. His opponent was Touchemall44 with the team name the Pelicans, which I don't believe is a Mini Season Team name.
Also at the bottom of the log it says
Blank Canvas (5279 ft elevation)
Hitting Difficulty is All-Star.
Pitching Difficulty is All-Star.
2023 Online GameI don't believe Conquest or Mini Seasons are flagged as 2023 Online Games.
Could SDS's system be reporting these incorrectly? Possibly. Could the account have been hacked? Maybe. It will be hard to prove one way or another.
Dude….that’s me….and I can assure you I didn’t play him. So me and him both got banned. We played against each other. I never knew dude until I got on these forums trying to figure out why I was banned. This is crazy. That just shows even more that this is absolutely bogus.
Ok. So this is what I'm SEEING. Not saying it's what happened; but what you see with the naked eye.
Two people that got banned for win sharing happen to come on the forum complaining that they never players BR. But their game summaries show that they BOTH played each other multiple times.
So one of two things happened: Someone hacked the accounts of two seperate people and they made it look like they played each other OR one person made two SEPERATE accounts, someone had the one account match up with the second account MULTIPLE times in a row to go 12-0, and SDS caught them and banned BOTH accounts.
Again, if this is an error on SDS's part; then I hope you get it resolved.
However if it's the latter, which from what I've seen happen in the past, someone tried to get away with something and got caught.

What did you get banned for?
The ban is what others have reported since Monday on here. Win Trading/Account Sharing in the Battle Royale game mode. Never played in BR program and everything is offline. There is a suspicious user who played a game on my account, on rookie lever v CPU and lost 1-0, but other than that nothing else. I have no idea who this is and couldn't find this person when I clicked on their link.
Darn, im sorry about that. I hope they fix this. Seems like a lot of people are being banned for no reason. Seems a tad excessive considering you’re paying for the game and can’t play. Hopefully they resurrect you soon.

Man I can assure you that if I had done ANYTHING wrong you would not see me wasting my time on here, I think I see what you’re saying though. My account being hacked seems like the only logical explanation at this point. I hope that is not the case because I know that I will probably not get a fair opportunity to prove that I was indeed not even at my house during those time stamps. I was thinking it may something similar to the extra innings mode last year where it would match you up with random, real, offline DD squads. Your theory makes more sense though. If anyone has any ideas on how to talk to an actual human, or generate a real response please reach out to me. Thanks.

That is the main issue, we don’t have anyone to speak with and no responses to tickets submitted. I’m hoping to hear something more substantial but I doubt it.

I am not sure if anyone from SDS will even read this and for anyone that wants to troll, please do so, but I just wonder if anyone who works for this company realizes that the PSN IDs are real human beings behind those IDs.
In the past few days we have had numerous posts about being banned for something that is not common for any game and have expressed our frustrations and submitted tickets and nothing has come of it. I can see if someone just absolutely cheated or stole from the company and they wish to ignore this person, but for the most part we who have suffered this suspension are a minority. They do not have any customer service support and the only way to reach someone is to submit a ticket. When you offer services and product, like stubs, you should have a support team that is willing to listen and speak with you be it via phone, chat or email. I am venting on a public forum and most will just see my user id and move along. I hope a real human with real feelings will read this with SDS and help out the select few. My user is ram08210 and the ID is my initial, hello all my name is Richard BTW and the zip code where I live. I was born and raised in Tampa, FL and moved to south Jersey a little over 5 years ago. I am a huge fan of the Tampa Bay Rays and Atlanta Braves. Before the Rays existed in 1998 we had the luxury to watch Braves games on WTOG 44.
So as you can see SDS I am human and a 45 year old man wanting to enjoy the game I spent money on to play. In conclusion, I ran a history of my game log and all games are played by me vs CPU except for one game by someone who I have no clue on how this is on my game log. Also, this person played the CPU and lost on rookie 1-0. Thank you for reading this and if there're other humans who are frustrated with this ordeal and would like to just play the game, please reply. Best of luck.
I feel your frustration. Imagine paying to got to disneyland. You pay full price. You don't do anything wrong. Someone comes up and says we have you on video doing something illegal your banned and its non-negotiable. Can u show the proof of us on video? I don't need to show proof. We know you did something illegal. Please leave the park now.
That wouldn't fly....but why does Sds do it?
Because they can. Sds flexing power as intended. Why? Because we are a dime a dozen. Even though they might lose you as a customer. Someone will take your place next year with a shiny new addition. Long story short....features in the game change every year but Sds transparency to its customer...stays the same every year.
Every year is like a missile strike. They identify "cheating targets" and fire with their ban and hit innocent bystanders. Seems like every year some huge ban rolls out and a ton of innocent people have to deal with it.

These two posts hit the nail on the head. I’m also a 32 year old dad of 3. My fun time at this time in my life is after the kids have gone to bed and I get to fire up the game. It may not sound like a big deal, but to me it is. It deprives me of my only avenue of adult fun lol. I’m seriously hoping that they reverse my ban

I don't play online cause I hardly have the time to get it all done offline. I used mlb the show as a way to keep have fun and keep up with the game of baseball irl too. I'm pretty disappointed in this ban cause of time and money wasted. If mine isn't reversed, I won't buy this game ever again.
